Any particular reason Ccleaner would delete contents from a window.old folder?
I've been using Ccleaner for a while now, so I'm familiar with the program. I'm on a fresh install of Windows 7. Installed the latest Ccleaner downloaded from piriform. All the check box setting were at default, which I leave alone. No folders were in the include list.
However, Ccleaner was deleting stuff from windows.old. I was wondering why it was taking abnormally long. I went to check it out and caught it in the act before it could finish the folder off. Ccleaner said it was deleting the contents from the recycling bin with a file path of C:\Windows.old\Users\Administrator\Desktop when I caught it. All my important files were backed up. So I let Ccleaner keep running, and I went to the folder real quick were the files were at. I watched couple files get deleted out of the folder before I stopped it. I haven't deleted any files from the windows.old folder prior to running Ccleaner. That's how I knew something wasn't right. I ran Recuva and its mind boggling all the stuff it deleted out of that directory. Any ideas why this would happen?
